I´m the only one who´s not really happy for they choose this song??

Althought I´ve never seen it in live (and I´m a collector of songs in live, so this could be one more on my collection), ufff.... really I don´t match with it... I can think in some others 10 songs of Keith than I prefer....

love the song; has a very strange 'showtune' quality which as been commented on before . . .

don't know what you mean by "they choose this song" - you mean the fact that they rehearsed it?
fine with me!

has one great lyric: "end up six feet underground! (that's just too deep for me baby!"

think i'll give it a spin right now . . .

listen to the way Keith's singing voice and his guitar voice intertwine

Laughs, this seem you like the song... "choose this song", yes I mean they are rehearsing it... and I don´t know, I was so sure than I´ll got finally "You Got The Silver" or "Connection" or "This Place Is Empty"... even I´ll not care got again "Infamy", "Wanna Hold You", "You Don´t Have..", "Thieff In The Night"..... but "Can´t Be Seen"... umm... not my cup of coffee..

I saw them do it in 1990, and I'm no great fan of it, either live or on record. One of my least favourite Keith numbers.

well kastakanas, they've also rehearsed all those others too already (except Connection, so far).
Can't Be Seen isn't my "favourite" number either - i just find it wonderfully strange and ambitious.
if nothing else: listen to that vocal line - it's amazing!
and it's such a stand-out in the Stones' body of work -
is there any other number that sounds like that one? i can't think of one.

I love Can't Be Seen. One of Keef's finest. IMO - up until ABB, I'd thought he'd lost touch since Voodoo

Can't be seen is fine for me

Little T&A is my main wish for Keef's set, but Can't be Seen is great too.

Please Keef, no Slipping Away, no Thief, no You Don't Have to mean it. We already enjoyed these songs.

Love another line of that song: "Set us up so they can shoot us down".

I don't know guys, it could be that, finally, after courting for 7 months a lady, engaged to another guy, she finally surrendered to my charm ;-), I can't help but giggle when I hear songs like Can't Be Seen and Thief in the Night.

smile: speak for yourself, Doc - i'd love all of those, along with whatever else Keith chooses for his LV turn -
which i'm really hoping will be 3 numbers, like at the final show in 06

i like this song...yes i do! it would be better than the worst...add a long guitar solo to make it better live...

I think its a great song, the way Keith sings on this song reminds me slightly of how Clapton sings. Pretty unique tune for Keith's vocals.

with sssoul, we all have personal favorites and expectations.

As far as I am concerned, I never saw Keef singing Little T&A that's why it's my main wish for this european tour.
Can't Be Seen was 17 years ago, which is very long IMO so it comes 2nd in my personal Keef songs wish list.
3rd would be All About You.

Since 95, I was lucky to hear and see him play very different songs :
Happy, BTMMR, Slipping Away, Nearness Of You, Wanna Hold You, The Worst, Thru and Thru, Connection, You Don't Have To mean It, You Got The Silver, Thief In The Night, Infamy, This Place Is Empty.
That's why I give my priority to the ones I never heard or heard less.

Doc, Doc - i'm not questioning your preferences, just your use of "we" as if you were speaking for "us".
anyway: peace - Keith'll perform what he feels like performing regardless. at least i sure hope so :E

Doc..... so, you are other "collector" of songs, don´t you?? (laughs)

Well, I must admit I always appreciate having a song I never saw them perform

Yeah, it's a good 'un. Hope they play it at the O2. And Happy.

Can't Be Seen is a MEGA tune! My 2nd Keith fave after Little T & A. Play it, please!!
